lyrics

Place the bread upon my lips.
Taste the wine under my skin.
Kneel to the ones you loved before.
Heaven open up your doors.

I sought you, you fought me.
This isn't the way it’s suppose to be!
Your begotten one, your forgotten one.

When we die, we die alone.
An empty cross, an empty tomb.
When we die, we die alone.

I would die for you -- I would kill in your name;
But you're not coming back.
I forgot my way.
I would die for you,
Beg and plead for you.
But I don't know your name.

Oh god, clasp these pilgrim hands
Coarse with fear, and endlessly begging.
My knees went weak, splintered and shaking,
filthy with the works of my fathers hands.

Wrought with the lies I tell myself,
broken on the backs of every word.
I sleep with stars in my eyes.
I sleep with my lips pressed against your cheek.
